Answer 1

It seems to me she is VERY spoiled...at two years old she is a holy terror its time for a little putch on the butt...if its not done now wait till she is 15 to see what you have.

Children need disipline.

Answer 2

I HAVE THREE CHILDREN AND YEAS SOMETIMES THEY CAN MAKE YOU CRAZY... YOU MUST GIVE CONSEQUECES AND REWARDS.. BE CONSISTANT WITH ALL THAT YOU DO... DON'T GIVE IN . YOU SET THE RULES AND SHE WILL CHANGE.  BEHAVIOR IS  LEARNED SO BE CONFIDENT YOU CAN CHANGE IT...GOOD LUCK

Answer 3

It is called discipline!!!!!!!  The child has to know that any behavor like that is not and will not be tolerated.  Time out Time out Time out and if that does not work you can always spank.  I know that is a hot button issue but sometimes it is all that will work.  Praying never hurt either.  If nothing else works she might need to talk to her doctor there may be a mental issue.

Answer 4

its called the terrible twos they are bad at this age, they are learning to get into everything. it should eventually get better she just has to start disciplining little by little. hope this helps!

Answer 5

This sounds like a really bad case of the terrible twos.

The terrible two stage happens to toddlers about 2-3 years old because they are no longer treated like a helpless baby but they are still too little to do much of anything by them self. So because they are frustrated with this new change they misbehave to get a response from mom and dad.

Tell mom the the response should be discipline but never too negative.

Try turning all of this energy into something positive...maybe rewards at the end of the week for not getting out of the crib at night.

Make sure the toddler has enough space of their own to "mess up" and make rules that they can understand.

Remember that rewards are an excellent tool but by no means should be overused to control the child.

Hope this helps....good luck!

Answer 6

The problem isn't the child the problem is the parent.  This chid obvioulsy has never been disciplined and obviously is NOT potty trained.  She is two, she shouldn't BE in a crib to begin with.  Two year olds can only behave according to how they have been taught.  Obviously this child's mother hasn't taught her anything so the poor child is NOT to blame.  Your friend needs parenting classes before CPS removes the child for neglect.

Answer 7

she needs to start putting her in time out if not she needs to take the things she likes away from her so she can learn that what she has done is bad

Answer 8

It seems like she is acting out some aggressions,has anyone been able to talk to her and ask seriously what's wrong?I'm not sure maybe her mom, needs to one take her their pediatician, and they may recommend her talking to a baby psychiatrist, people who deal with children all the time, its their job,mam I really don't know what to tell you,except that of what I have,Good Luck! There's a lovable child inside, but I'm not sure how to bring out.

Answer 9

Sounds like it would be a good idea to talk to a doctor. They might have some good tips for your friend.

Answer 10

It is possible some of this is the result of being two and in need of consistent discipline (if you spank - do not use your hand- timeout works best), but some of this repeat behavior is also unusual (peeing on walls, sleeping upright, and putting holes in walls). I would strongly recommend speaking to the child's pediatrician. Have your friend (as best she can) keep a log of the child's activities, outburst, sleep patterns, and so on for the pediatrician for at least a full week. This will help pin-point triggers of certain behaviors and it will also shorten visits to the pediatrician for diagnoses! Secondly, consider the environment of the child - stressful, chaotic, etc. - (although I am very aware a very peaceful and consistent environment can house a troubled child). Also, talk with the pediatrician about the possibilities of ADHD, ODD, etc. Although it is very difficult to diagnose these disorders in very young children, there are programs like play therapy that can greatly help.
